The American Bar Association Section of Taxation wishes to remind everyone that the application period for its Public Service Fellowship program for 2010-2012 is still open. Applications must be received by August 1, 2009 to be considered.

The Public Service Fellowship program, which began in 2008, reflects the Section's desire to advance public service efforts in tax law, and to foster a more fair and equitable tax system. Pro Bono service has been an integral part of the Section's activities for many years. The Section actively encourages member participation in various Pro Bono efforts, holds numerous training sessions to that end, and devotes many of its resources to providing legal services to those in need. The Section recognizes the need for funding and fostering recent law school graduates or judicial clerks who wish to dedicate some portion of their professional careers to public service in tax.
